The study aimed to estimate the prevalence of long face pattern, classify its severity and establish any gender or occlusal relation predilection, if present , amongst school going children in an urban setup in Odisha's population. Materials and Method : This study included 906 children(12 to 17 years) from upper primary and secondary schools in Bhubaneswar, Odisha. Facial morphology examination included direct observation of the face with lips at rest to identify individuals with long face pattern. After identification and based on photographic evaluation they were further classified into three subtypes, namely mild, moderate and severe. only moderate and severe subtypes were considered for actual prevalence estimation. The molar relation was also recorded for these individuals. binomial test and chi-square test were used for data analysis. Results : prevalence of long face pattern amongst the study subjects was found to be 31.10% and actual prevalence was 10.6%. males had a higher predilection. Females had a greater predilection to be afflicted by the severe subtype. Long face pattern was more associated with Angle's class I and II type of occlusion irrespective of the severity. class I (Angle's ) type of occlusion was most prevalent in males. In females, Class I and II type of occlusion was evenly distributed. Conclusion : The mild subtype of long face pattern is more frequent amongst individuals of Bhubaneswar,Odisha. Clinical significance : Epidemiological data focusing solely on the facial pattern and correlating severity in individuals with its prevalence is critical for clinicians to determine the prognosis of the treatment being considered.
